But I get your point that what what is happening right now is unprecedented and on a much bigger, global scale...
What i was trying to express was that no matter how much you think you rule the world and have the most advanced technology, nature will always be stronger...

That’s not entirely correct.

Humans have completely destroyed the climate precisely because our technology didn’t destroy humanity as fast as humanity is destroying our fragile climate

On a planetary scale human technology is now 100,000,000 to 100,000,000,000 times more destructive than during the Roman Empire

We're on the same page with this, so this is a question from genuine interest: how did you come up with this number? What factors account for it?

The roman Empire basically cut down every tree large enough for shipbuilding all around the Mediterranean Sea with major impact on the environment.
